Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C][Am][F]
[C][G][F]

[Verse 1]
God is a wild [C]old dog
[Am]
Someone left out on the [F]highway
I seen him running [C]by me
He don't be[G]long to no one
now
[C][F][C]

[Verse 2]
[F]
Dropped him [C]out on [G]93
Mange was setting in on [F]his hips
and on his knees
Between the highways
running [C]north and south
[G]We pulled on over and
we put [F]him out

[Verse 3]
Willie said he was old [C]and go
[G]ing blind
Momma told me how she [F]didn't mind
When Willie kicked him
[C]with his shoe
[G]He just climbed on in just [F]like he knew

[Verse 4]
God is a wild old [C]dog[Am]
Someone left out on [F]the highway
I seen him running [C]by me
He don't be[G]long to no
one now
[C][F][C]

[Verse 5]
[F]
It's lonely on the [Am]highway
Sometimes [C]a heart can turn to [G]dust
Get whittled down [F]to nothing
Broken down and [Am]crushed
In with [F]the bones of
Wild old [G]dogs
Wild old dog[F]s

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am]
[F][C]
[G][F]

[Verse 6]
Dropped him out [C]on [G]93
Tall grass was waving there
just [F]like the sea
He tore off running like we set him [C]free
Just [G]disappeared right in front of [F]me

[Verse 7]
God is a wild [C]old dog[Am]
Someone left out on [F]the highway
I seen him running by [C]me
He don't be[G]long to no one [F]now
He don't be[G]long to no

[Outro 1]
one now
[C][F][C][F][C]
